Hi,There were some issues:1. I think it doesn't support unicode. I have unicode in my paths.2. It needs to put a image in a folder, and not to change the whole folder icon to other image (can be done by properties > customize).3. When you Rename the folder name, the image is lost. It is not happening when you using properties > customize.

Actually...now that I read the initial post more closely, the request is a bit different from the thread I mention. I think the OP wants a program that will take two images (the folder image and the "custom" image) and then make a composite of them. Is that correct, Stamimail?

Yes. How the result should look:Take any image you want, place it in a folder, and renamed it to: Folder.jpg (or Folder.gif).Now, you can see the desired result.

The problem with this method is - it works only for Thumbnails view. It won't work for Details view.

@skrommel1. You can find Folder and Filp icons in Icons.zip I had attached, or you can extract from imageres.dll.2. There still issues:a. The Folder created, created in the Root (D:\), and not for the chosen folder.b. There is a problem with the resolution of the result. It should be 256x256 for Extra Large Thumbnails view.

There is a question to be asked:Where is better to save and load the image icon from:- Within the chosen folder - Each folder has its icon.or- Dedicated icons folder of User - One icon for multiple folders.

IMO, you will have to use the second method, to load the icon from a "Dedicated icons folder of User", because if you will put the icon within the folder, it will no longer work when the folder path will changed/renamed.

As you have already understood, the new icon will consist of three layers.1. Folder png [256x256]2. User Image [Resized to: ???][I don't know what's default. It will be advanced if the user will able to decide on resize and location X Y Z]3. Flip png [256x256]

I think it will be better to give the user the default folder pngs: 1. and 3.so that he will be able to replace the 1. and 3. layers with other folders templates.

Now that I'm thinking about it,there are some cases that the user needs only the icon, without applying it on a chosen folder, like if he wants to use the icon in Classic Explorer Bar of Classic Shell.So I think that this progam should only create an icon. (and not trying to apply it on a chosen folder)

Use 256x256 pixel PNG-files for File1 and File3. File2 can be PNG, JPG or BMP and is resized to 216x216 pixels.The file Icon1.ico is created in the selected folder, and renamed automatically if the file already exists.

The first time it runs, it downloads and unpacks ImageMagic and three test PNG-files. Also, the last used files and folder paths are saved to ImagesToIcon.ini.

I didn't try yet the new ImagesToIcon,but I did some tests, and I figured out that, if you edit the desktop.ini file within the created folder, you will be able to move/rename the created folder as you wish.You need just to remove the path part like this:From
